Default Ball chain in headstock of a Clausing 6900 lathe?

The balls are 1/8" dia on mine. It looks like the usual chain on a
light cord, although a little bigger. My guess is that it's 3606T91
in the McM - Carr catalog.

Here are photos of how it should look inside the head.

That is ingenious. I wonder if Iggy's chain is in the sump?
